Hi em, It looks like you've got track changes turned on, and show markup comments on as well. I'm not sure if you're using Word 2010 or 2007, which I use, but in 2007, go to the Review tab and click on Track Changes to turn it off. Also, check the status of the Show Markup button, and turn off what you don't want. Please post back to let us know if that worked.
